#41305, "Got my car out of the shop!!"


          

Yesterday I got my car out of the shop! I had a howell bottem end rebuild kit with 10.5 compression put on. Should I break it in before I spray, if so how many miles should I put on it before it is safe. Im going to the track next week to see what times I can get!!

GOD YES BREAK IT IN, unless u dont like your new thousand dollar rebuild kit. I would highly recommend takign it easy on the car for the time being, I mean would u go buy a brand new eclipse and spray that same day, its just not good forr it, they need time to break in the cylinder walls

just wondering what fuel setup you plan to use for that 100 shot with the high copression motor? Casue imo the stock fuel setup is no where near adquate for that...
